Works in MP, not in SP?

[WhiteBoy]

System specs:

AMD Athlon T-bird 800

512MB RAM

Windows 2000 SP2

ATI Radeon 8500 64MB w/latest drivers - 5.13.01.6037

 

I can play MP just fine, but when I try to play SP, I get to the "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..." screen. The progress bar at the bottom starts filling up and looks like it gets all the way finished. But it locks up - can't CTRL-ATL-DEL, ALT-Tab, CTRL-Esc or anything! Total lock...have to press reset button.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!
